Step 1

Follow directions to mix up surface prep to prepare your fabric scarf. You will need to wash without softener and then dry. Then treat fabric with surface prep and all to dry before water marbling. Follow directions to mix size using the Magic Medium. Mix enough size to fill the tray you will be dipping your fabric in. This scarf needed to be at least 18"x18" to wrap around the box for the ornament.

Step 2

Begin your design by creating a base color with White Water Marbling Arcylic. Pour a line down the center of the tray. Then drop "stones" of Black paint randomly over surface. Continue to alternate dropping white and black to build up layers of paint. Do this about 5-10 times for each color. Lightly blow the surface or use a Marbling Stick to move the paint around.

Step 2

In the four corners drop red stones onto the surface. Continue to build colorful stones by adding Orange, Yellow, Green, Aquamarine, Light Blue, Lavender and Pink into the previous color's center. Repeat to the size desired.

Step 3

Hold four corners of fabric (you may need an extra set of helping hands) and allow the center to touch the surface first. Gently lay down the rest of the fabric. Lightly press on fabric to get rid of any trapped bubbles. Pull up fabric and rinse.

Step 4

Hang scarf and allow to drip dry completely. Clean off surface of size with cleaning paper to begin a new design!

Step 5

Tie up a gift in a box or by itself and make a simple gift tag using water marbled paper.
